Our Story

A 2020 World Economic Forum report says 7 of the top 10 skills a company seeks in their employees are behavioral skills. A lot of mundane tasks are increasingly being taken over by technology. What will set apart us from our machines will be the people skills, our behavioral skills.

While we have made unprecedented progress in teaching the hard skills to our talent, the skills that matter in the long run – critical thinking, leadership, teamwork, communication, mindfulness – we still tend to ignore them or do a tick-the-box activity for them.

At EdMyst, we are set to change that. We are going to put the talent at the center – not the hard skills. We are committed to make every professional the best version of itself.

Research has shown that personalized coaching is the most effective way to drive long-term behavioral change in a professional. However due to lack of scalable and affordable solutions, only a handful of employees get access to coaching.

We have built a network of expert global coaches, whom we are equipping with behavioral science-backed tools and a powerful yet an intuitive technology platform, to bring talent transformation 1) at scale and 2) at an affordable cost.

Leading global brands and hundreds of professionals have put their trust in us. And we are just getting started.

Big Thanks to Edmyst for connecting us with some of the esteemed industry leaders so conveniently. It's a go-to platform for me and my team, since the diversity in the coaches' pool is fantastic. Keep up the excellent work, team!

Vikram Ahuja Founder and CEO, Talent500

EdMyst was an invaluable partner for TakeTwo, a career accelerator for women returning back to work launched by Talent500. Aparna and the team from EdMyst coached the batch on personal and professional development, and helped the batch represent the best version of themselves. EdMyst's team of coaches bring a strong focus on practical advice and mentoring from personal experience. I'm confident of their ability to add value to professionals across multiple skill sets and experience levels.
